Route Optimization Software for African Territories
Plan territories on real travel time, market days, customer availability and rep offs. Route optimization then builds a beat plan that holds up on the ground.

Every route should buy back selling time, not spend it
Field teams lose up to 22% of productive selling hours every week. Territories and beat plans are drawn without accounting for travel time, rep offs and customer availability.
That is the floor here. An hour crossing Lagos, a market day that empties a trading centre, a stretch nobody can cover and return from in a day. A route drawn by distance shows none of it.
BeatRoute builds territories and beat plans on those conditions and on your goals. You get wider coverage, more selling time, and a plan the rep can actually run.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does route optimization software account for traffic and road quality?
Routes are built on real travel time between outlets rather than straight-line distance. A corridor that takes an hour in Lagos traffic is planned as an hour. Territory cuts and visit frequencies follow the same reality. Brands running BeatRoute in Nigeria include AAVA Brands, BUA Foods and Dangote Cement.
Can beat planning work around market days and early closing?
Yes. Customer availability is part of the plan. No rep is sent to a trading centre on the day it is empty, or to a shop that shuts before they arrive.
Does the route plan work offline?
Yes. The day's sequence sits on the rep's device, so a dead spot between towns does not strand them. Completed visits sync when the network returns.
How is this different from Google Maps or a delivery routing tool?
Those solve the shortest drive between fixed stops. Route optimization decides which outlets belong in the day at all.
Can route optimization software model how many reps a territory needs?
Yes. Simulate rep counts, shifts and visit rules against real travel time before committing headcount, where one rep covers a region not a suburb.
